A new and fresh take on the traditional pencil skirt is pairing the Ankara skirt with a completely matching or complementary crop top.

The combination of black, red, and white colours in one outfit is called classic for a reason – there is not a single woman who wouldn’t look fabulous in those shades.

Another variation of the black, white, and red theme, but this time with a more intricate cut: the asymmetric shape of the skirt makes the whole look!

There are so many things to like about the next look: the Ankara, the tulle, the striped top and the matching striped shoes, and, of course, a super fun purse!

This version of the Ankara skirt + white shirt is less suited for office wear, but it’s a pretty fabulous look on its own.
